Testimonials

We used Empire 6 Band for our wedding and it was the best possible decision we could have made! We chose the continuous play package and Empire 6 had my entire reception out on the dance floor for the whole night without stopping! I still get comments to this day that Empire 6 was the best wedding band my guests have ever heard. They played incredible songs and were all so talented! We loved how they learned 2 new songs for my Husband and I and that they included us up on stage with them throughout the night. I HIGHLY recommend empire 6 to ensure you have a great party atmosphere!

IDT Band is, without a shred of doubt, the most talented, accommodating and energetic band we’ve ever known. Our day was planned for 13months leading up to the event and the band was one of the first contracts we signed… from that point forward the level of professionalism and consistent communication were top notch. They helped us customize our day, drive musciality throughout the evening with ease – from ceremony to happy hour though dinner to dancing – and now all of our guests are obsessed!… wanting to book them for their wedding, birthdays and general shin-digs. I truly hope there’s another day we can work with IDT… I will recommend them every chance I get. Thank you to Mike and the crew!!!! So much love.

What superlatives can I possibly use to describe Empire 6, who played at our daughter’s New Orleans wedding last weekend?? Immensely talented, energetic, enthusiastic, polished, professional, hard working,…just to name a few. From the minute the band started, the dance floor was filled to capacity, playing a range of dance music sure to please every age group. The energy in the ballroom was off the charts, with 300+ guests singing along and dancing throughout the 3 hours of continuous play. If you’re looking for a top notch wedding band, look no further. Empire 6 was FANTASTIC!! Mike Duane, who handles their arrangements was the consummate professional who handled the booking process and worked with us throughout the process. Thank you, Empire 6!! I wish I could relive the whole night all over. You were the BEST.

IDT was the best wedding band! I cannot keep up with the ongoing comments I am getting from guests about how we had the absolute best wedding band. Mike was wonderful to work with along with the whole team! I would get married again just to have IDT at my wedding!

Our guests loved it! Empire 6 put on an AWESOME show at our wedding. I’m very happy we chose them, and would definitely recommend them to friends.

Meghan

Empire 6 was so much fun!!!! They are super talented and also know how to engage the audience. I’ve had tons of people ask me about them after the wedding, they were a huge hit. Jared (the manager) was great to work with before the wedding, and was very accommodating to our requests.

Meghan

I just wanted to thank you and let you know that Empire 6 blew us away! There was never a moment that I can remember where the dance floor wasn’t jam-packed with people of all ages. The singers were phenomenal the whole night and the musicians totally rocked! People are still contacting my parents, fiancé, and me telling us how fun that party was, and I owe it all to Empire 6. Even my dad, who has a musical background but wasn’t all that thrilled about the idea of hiring a band to begin with, can’t stop talking about how Empire 6 was one of the best bands he’s ever heard. I just wanted to thank you and the band for how organized, professional, and amazing you were and for making our wedding night such a blast!!!

Blair and Luke

Empire 6 was absolutely AMAZING. Our whole party loved the band and a month after the wedding people are still talking about how awesome they were. They were great to work with and answered any questions we had for them. We would suggest this band to anybody looking for a great time for their special day!!

Kellie & Austin

Becky Bailey

You guys really made our wedding memorable! People, if you’re looking for Michael Buble, Michael Jackson, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Beyonce–they’re all right here in this band!!!! Superstars!

Kimmie & Peter

Empire 6 was the best band I could have selected for my wedding. They were professional, engaged with he crowd, and even participated in our photo booth! They were amazing and sounded great! They went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was exactly what we wanted–and even learned a couple of songs for us last minute! They were the hit of the night and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for an energetic, friendly, and great sounding band!

Hollee

Empire 6 Band is one of our absolute favorite bands to work with – they are not only amazingly talented vocalists, but super professional and fun to work with at the same time. As wedding planners, we work with a ton of musicians and Empire 6 is top notch. They’re able to get everyone, young and old, out on the dance floor for hours – if you’re looking for a great party, they are the band for you! We highly recommend them to all of our clients!

Kelly and Meaghan; Sweet Pea Events

Empire 6 was FANTASTIC!! They were great and they were so wonderful to work with. It was perfect! Allison and Brett were so happy.

Katie

I am SO thankful that we were able to have you guys play at our wedding. Not only were you guys a blast, but you were professional and organized. Our family and friends were dancing without a care the whole evening. I love looking back at the pictures and seeing how much fun everyone was having, even my grandparents were on the dance floor until midnight. Empire 6 made our reception memorable.

Angela

Empire 6 performed at our daughter’s wedding last August. They were amazing! All of our guests had such a good time and had so many positive comments about the band. We would definitely recommend Empire 6 and hope to use them again in the future!

Sandy

My husband and I absolutely loved Empire 6! They were fantastic and had everyone on the dance floor from the start. They play current music and can cover just about anything you ask them to! People are still talking about how great our band was – and its been 6 months since our wedding!

Lizzie

We were thrilled with their music selection and their talent. They were so much fun and everyone was dancing and having a wonderful time. Megan and Josh just LOVED them! I would HIGHLY recommend them for any occasion but especially for a wedding reception! Thank you for helping make it the PERFECT NIGHT!

Karen

We have heard nothing but great things about the band and the wedding. Spectacular and best wedding ever are a couple of comments we have heard from a couple of people.

Geron

I kid you not, hiring IDT as our wedding band was the best decision we made. I’m honestly not even sure I have the appropriate words to accurately describe how mind blowingly, amazingly fun our reception was thanks to the genius musicians and performers of IDT. I’m a musical theater actress in New York City, as are the majority of my friends and bridal party, so having fantastic music was of utmost importance for our reception, and IDT far exceeded my expectations! These guys can do it all, from our first dance song that was classic and old school to rapping the entire Nicki Minaj rap in Bang Bang, they were flawless from start to finish. Even our family friends who swore to not let anyone see them dance in public were up and dancing their faces off. Actually, at the end of the night when the band finished playing, our guests started chanting “one more song! one more song!” No one wanted it to end; we could have danced all night. Without a doubt, IDT was the biggest reason our wedding the most unbelievably fun and thrilling day of our lives, well next to getting married that is.

Cara

Kept the party going! Downloaded and played a last minute request from the bride and groom. They also controlled the ceremony music for us and did great! They have their own stage lighting that looks very nice as well!

Courtney

I LOVE this band! They were so much fun and had us dancing all night. We chose obscure songs for our dances (first dance, father-daughter) and they learned them without a problem. They will pretty much play anything and they often sound better than the original version! They are also reasonably priced, compared to other bands of their caliber.

Natalia

If you want the wow factor at your reception, BOOK THIS BAND, and fast! They will have the whole reception on the dance floor. They are wonderful musicians to work with and very professional and reliable. All the guests will be raving about them for weeks! I even had some friends develop injuries from dancing too hard at my wedding.

Anne

This was the best band I have ever heard at a wedding! They are very entertaining and extremely talented and easy to work with. They can literally play just about anything you would like, and they offered to learn the 2 songs that we wanted. I could not be happier with our wedding band and everyone loved them!!

Whitney

IDT Band played at our wedding and they were incredible! They’ve got a ton of energy and all the songs sounded like we were listening to the original artists. Don’t even keep looking for a band – if they are available for your date, BOOK THEM NOW!

Madeline L

We used the Identity Theft (IDT Band) for our wedding last weekend and they were SO amazing. They accommodated our special requests our special dances (first dance, father-daughter, etc.) and executed the new songs perfectly. I’ve never been to a wedding where the dance floor was not only PACKED, but also ALL night. Our guests raved about the band and how fun they were

Colie L

IDT was absolutely amazing! I hate to dance but my husband loves to… this band had me dancing all night long without him having to beg me to join him on the dance floor! Very easy to work with and well priced. Would highly recommend! Everyone keeps talking about how amazing the band was at our reception!

Haley

Empire 6 is absolutely incredible!! I heard them at a wedding in September and KNEW I had to hire them for mine! Jared and Travis were so accommodating and helpful from the start. They really listened to what kind of music we wanted and we couldn’t have been happier!!

Annie

Empire 6 did an amazing job at our wedding! So many people asking for their name at the end of the night! The dancefloor stayed full literally all night, even through DJed breaks (great selections there). Very responsive and so fun! Ashley told us at end of the night it was the most people she’d seen stay until the end of the night and out on the floor – and that’s all because of their talent and awesome music. Trust Empire 6 and celebrate your wedding with them! We’ve heard them three times and they do not disappoint. They play everything and please everyone.

They were hired to play at my daughter’s wedding, and the blew the doors off the place. They are the BEST band, and that came from the staff at the Crescent and our wedding planner. They were so surprised they had never heard of them. I cannot tell you how awesome these guys were. The singers (girl/guy) were remarkable, they had 3 horns, drums, guitar, staging was awesome! They even played horns leading out all the way through the sparklers as my daughter and her new husband walked through. I got more compliments on the band than anything. No one sat down. They vocals were, honestly, perfection. Everything about this band is out of this world. Hire them for your wedding because it will be the best night, and they have so much to do with the success of the whole wedding reception. If you find Empire 6 and can watch any of their videos, they are the real deal.

Lonnie

IDT Band absolutely MADE our wedding! They had everyone dancing, including our friends who hate dancing. Their energy and talent is amazing, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Madeline

BOOK THIS BAND NOW! I am not kidding when I say every guest at our wedding said how amazing our band was. Even guests who didn’t hit the dance floor! From the dinner set all the way until the end of the night, IDT kept it rocking all night long and always played perfectly to the crowd. Working with their manager, Travis was a breeze and he was so responsive via e-mail and phone. As a bride, communication is key to making you feel good about things. The band members were so talented and interacted with the crowd which people loved. The lead singer was also great at making announcements to keep things on track throughout the night. Look no further, you need IDT to play at your wedding!

Ashley

We had IDT Band for our wedding and HOLY MOLY they blew it out of the park! They are fantastic at getting the crowd moving – everyone was on the dance floor until the end of the night. Not only are they awesome at getting and keeping your party going, but they are so easy to work with! Very accommodating to songs we had chosen and to working with our schedule. Already wondering what next big party we can throw so we can get them back out to play for us.

Kristen H

Before booking Empire 6, I hadn’t had the pleasure of listening to them live, just the samples they had on their website (which were awesome, by the way). Throughout the planning process, Travis was easy to get ahold of, very helpful and quick to respond. Once it came down to the reception, we were blown away by their performance. Their energy was amazing and I cannot say enough wonderful things about them! The guests at our wedding were still talking about them weeks after the big day. They were able to get everyone on the dance floor — from 60 somethings to 20 somethings — they knew how to put on an awesome show!! I so wish I could replay the night over and over. I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone wanting a great, energetic, fun band! Thank you to Empire 6 for a memorable night!

Callie G

This band is flawless! IDT Band basically made our wedding. Our guests had zero shame in telling us that while they were happy for our nuptials they were actually more thrilled about the band. There were multiple times I thought I was listening to a recording, they are that good. It was like we were at a concert. The dance floor was packed–total shock because our families do not dance. They are so professional, easy to work with and very helpful. They took our venue, personal style and favorite songs into consideration and delivered. This is a very talented group and you will not be sorry.

Alda

BEST BAND EVER!! I am sooo happy that we chose IDT Band as our wedding band for our Camp Lucy wedding on May 16th. They did an AMAZING job. Travis was the band manager and he was excellent about getting a feel for what we were looking for and wanting to hear. We didn’t have many suggestions because we love all types of music and that is exactly what they have to offer. The guest were dancing all night long from country, to 90s pop, to today’s hits. They band was VERY reasonably priced too which made it all the more better. I was expecting to hear or “special” songs DJ but they surprised us by actually SINGING them live. I cannot say enough good things about them. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Brittnee J

Jared, Ashley, and the whole IDT gang are so much fun! They played at our wedding in October 2013. From the get go, their whole team was so professional and fun! They are so easy to work with and help you plan every detail. Most importantly, they are awesome! I guarantee if you book them that your guests will have a blast. The dance floor was packed the whole time they played at our wedding. All of our guests have gone on and on about how much fun they had at the wedding because of how great the band was. This will be some of the best money that you spend on your wedding. We still go regularly to see them play at a local bar because they are so much fun to watch!

Stephanie

WOW!!! Identity Theft was honestly the best band one could ever get!! They kept the dance floor packed the entire night and they looked like they were having fun too, not just going through the motions. They also helped us start the evening off with a mash-up and it went off seamlessly. People are still honestly asking me about them (1month later) and commenting on how they were the best band they have ever heard. They were absolutely the biggest hit of the night! Thank you Identity Theft for making our night so memorable and so so so much freakin fun!!!

Tricia

Identity Theft played at our wedding in May 2012, and we can’t speak highly enough of our experience working with them. Identity Theft was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding band. It isn’t always easy to find a band that has a broader repertoire than the standard wedding music, but Identity Theft had an awesome playlist of current songs. They truly made our reception something special — all of our guests were dancing the entire time, and even 6+ months later we get compliments constantly on them. We planned our Austin wedding from NYC, so we had to rely on reviews when deciding on a band, and we’re so glad we did. Identity Theft really is as great as everyone says. Jared and his team were also always very professional and pleasant to interact with prior to the wedding. We highly recommend them!

Shelby

Identity Theft is AMAZING. If you’re looking for a band that’ll keep your guests out of their chair and onto the dance floor this is the group to hire. We were looking for a band that was young and played current music with a splash of the oldies and they are it. We wanted our reception to be fun and we wanted to dance our bottoms off and Identity Theft dished out the goods. From the response of our guests, our wedding was the best ever and we truly believe it was with the help of Identity Theft!

I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! I am a full believer that the music can make or break the party. With this in mind I was super picky when it came to booking a band for the wedding. In fact, you could say I built my whole wedding around this premise because Identity Theft was actually the very first vendor I booked for the wedding. BEST. DECISION. EVER. Seriously, these guys (and ladies) are AWESOME! I knew right away in my initial dealings with Jared that they were young, hip and cool (exactly what we wanted in a cover band – my worst nightmare would have been to have old cheesy guys trying to pull off singing Lady Gaga!) and WOW can they perform! Our dance floor was PACKED all night long. After their last song the guests chanted “one more song, one more song”! It was SO much fun and I don’t remember dancing so much since I was in college (I’m 31 now, LOL)! Everyone kept asking where we found them and I can honestly say that I think a year from now they could probably get away with charging 3-5 times as much. They are THAT GOOD. Cee-Lo-Green to Lady Gaga to Katy Perry to Stevie Wonder to U2, they rock it all out.
